Calypso Bay is a nautical themed playground in tribute to its position by the water and just down the street from the Calypso Bay Marina. Here you'll find a pirate ship brimming with bridges, wheels, slides and nets - be careful, you might even be asked to walk the plank! Underneath the pirate ship the imaginative play space is further extended, with a small shop counter set up, tunnel frames and other interactive game panels. You'll also find swings, spinners and a small motor boat in this huge playground.
